It’s like waiting for the first guests to turn up to your party. You have put days, weeks, months of your time into planning and preparation and then finally the day comes. It’s Bart’s Bash 2016, and organisers need to have no concerns!

The global sailing community has united to kick-start Bart’s Bash in a majestic, humble, charming, emotional, fun and memorable first day.
As we enter day two we are on the cusp of some very exciting reports as many of the sailing clubs and sailing venues sail their Bart’s Bash races today, Sunday 18th September.

Brunei's Bash has the accolade of being first across the start line as weather gods scupper NZ hopes...for now!

As sailors around the world take to the water this weekend to participate in Bart's Bash, the global participation and fundraising event in aid of the Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation (ASSF), we hear that owing to wild weather and gale forecasts, Sailability Wellington, who were due to kick off proceedings, have regrettably had to postpone their Bash until next week!
